Materials Inventory tool to sync from console to Inara

[Enzeydad]

We are all probably quite frustrated at the lack of external tools for console.

I have been tracking my materials to engineer via Excel spreadsheet and transcribing the values is a serious pain in the ass.

So, I sat down and built an iOS app for my iPhone (while semi AFK massacre missioning), where I scan the inventory page and have the app detect the materials and the current values I have. From there, sync to Inara and Bob's your uncle. This works quite well right now and it takes about a minute or so to update my materials inventory. (down from about 10 or so when done manually to Excel)

So now I am looking for testers.

You need Elite on PS or XBOX (it will also work on PC but why would you?) and an iOS device to install the app.

Process to get your materials from console to Inara:

1. Scan the inventory screen by taking a picture and have the app read it via OCR
2. sync to Inara

Here is the TestFlight link to download to your iOS device: https://testflight.apple.com/join/OtkPYjYx

Massive respect to you for doing this!! I'd volunteer to test but I'm an Android user... Good luck though, it's super cool to see anything still happening in the console space.
